Instagram influencers are flocking to Chernobyl for likes
"Many people come here, ask a lot of questions about the TV series, about all the events. People are becoming more curious, "said tourist guide Victoria Brozko. She insists the area is safe for visitors. "During the whole visit to the forbidden zone of Chernobyl, the radiation dose is approximately two microsieverts, which is the equivalent of radiation you get at home for 24 hours," says Brozko.
When taking photographs, they do not take into account the instructions that all visitors to the contaminated zone receive, so they take selfies at the locations where the radiation is still strong, and thus praise the readings on small Geiger counters (holding them as selfie cameras), sitting on still radioactive asphalt or pose in a famous luna park, and they do not even show a slice of respect to the victims.
Although it can only be accessed in the Chernobyl zone with licensed guides, it does not prevent tourists from inadequately taking photos in the area or even at the location itself.
